How To Spice Up the Missionary Position

The missionary position is ol’ faithful in the bedroom. It’s what you use when you don’t know what else to use. It can become pretty mundane if it’s a dish you regularly order from the menu, but it doesn’t have to be! Missionary allows for multiple variations with only the slightest of adjustments, so follow these hot little tips for better sex.

Coital Alignment Technique

Otherwise known as CAT, the Coital Alignment Technique is a similar position to traditional missionary, but the man slides his body up a few inches so that his pelvic bone is on top of yours and the whole of his weight is on top of you (rather than on his elbows). He then grinds into you rather than thrusting, so that the base of his penis constantly presses against your clitoris.

While it doesn’t allow for deep penetration for the man, the constant clitoral stimulation is more likely to bring you to orgasm during intercourse.

Pillow play

Placing a pillow underneath your backside during missionary helps to keep your pelvis raised. Penetration will be deeper for the man, and his penis will also hit your frontal wall where the G spot is located, making it a beneficial position for both of you.

Head rush

Dangling your head and shoulders off the edge of the bed while engaging in missionary can heighten an orgasm for some women. As long as you don’t become lightheaded or dizzy, the tingling that occurs in your upper body will create a magical bodily experience when your lower half follows suit.

Knee hugger

Instead of spreading your legs apart as he enters you, bring your knees up to your chest and rest your legs over his shoulders. Not only does this provide deeper penetration for him, his penis will push against the back walls of your vagina for increased stimulation.

Legs together

Bringing your legs together instead of splaying them apart while he is inside you provides a completely different sensation despite being a tiny variation on the missionary position. He will feel your vagina tighten on his penis, and because he is forced to enter you from an angle grinds against your clitoris, it is a more pleasurable way for women to enjoy a position that traditionally favours men.
